Well written commentary, Ron. There is no reconciling the Left's lies.

[verity]

You have a gift for prose.

Excellent post! I shows the absolute both-sides argument of the pro-death left and RINOs.

[JennysCool]

Well done, DoughtyOne!

Good job, except it is the dehydration which will kill her.
It takes a month or longer to starve to death.

[Brad’s Gramma]

Thank you.

I just keep thinking that as a child, I heard of the evils of Nazi Germany, and their murder of the inconvenient, and undesirable elements in society.

I am haunted that we have now become that which I was taught to revile because of it's absolute evil.

I heard of the evils of Nazi Germany,

I have been repating over and over today that Hitler did this with the full cooperation of the judges, courts, politicians and doctors!

i think that in Florida, as well as in every state, someone should take the laws written to protect animals/pets from inhumane treatment and substitute each mention of animal and/or pet and insert "human patient." What's good for animals/pets should be good enough for humans.

Thanks, I've printed this one out to share with neighbors. Beautifully stated.

Thank you for the post.

Let us continue to pray for Terri, her family, and our country.

Excellent piece, DoughtyOne. Please send it in as an Op-Ed.

Thanks, DoughtyOne. Beautifully said.

Good points. I was eating lunch in my car and I was tuning around the radio to the local Pittsburgh talk stations and there is a local talkshow hostess named Lynn Cullin. She said, "dying by starvation is peaceful." I almost put my right fist into the radio.

We are told that Terry lives in a vegetative state. She does not have awareness. Killing her would therefore be painless. Strangely these same folks turn around and make the argument that Terry would not want to live like this. Why not? Does she know what is taking place? They say no. Does she have mental faculties? They say no. Is she in pain? They say no. What pray tell is the impetus for killing her then?

BINGO! This glaring inconsistency seems to be above 90% of the typical person's ability to reason, otherwise, Felos and the scummy husband could not get away with statements like they made yesterday, claiming how horrible it is to reinsert the tube. ("It is dastardly to make Terri go through a painful operation to put the tube back in" blah, blah, blah

You Get It.

Pretty Good.
